Answers About Cleanup After a Suicide in Pleasantville, Houston, TX

Where can I find support after a loss to suicide?

The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline answers calls and texts at 988, 24/7. Funeral homes, faith communities, doctors and counselors can also help you find grief support. A cleanup team cleans the room, but it is not a replacement for people who can help you heal.

Do I need to be at the property during cleanup?

Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can also ask the team to pause while a family member collects something.

Can a landlord or employer hire a cleanup team?

Yes. Landlords, property managers and employers can hire cleanup of a unit or workplace. The team works discreetly so other tenants or coworkers are protected. Ask what documentation you get with the work.

Does the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pay for suicide cleanup?

The program is built for violent crimes, so it usually does not apply. It pays up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016. Ask the Attorney General's office whether a specific case qualifies, at (800) 983-9933.

How long after a suicide can cleanup start?

Cleanup can start once authorities release the property. In Texas, a justice of the peace or a medical examiner, depending on the county, looks into certain deaths. They and the police decide when the scene is released. Ask them before booking a crew.

What happens to personal belongings and keepsakes?

Photos, letters, jewelry and papers are set aside, cleaned when possible and returned to the family. Tell the team what to look for. Items that cannot be made safe are removed, and the team explains why.
